Victorious members of the Arizona football team hoist the territorial cup into the air in celebration after Arizona's 56-35 win against ASU in Arizona Stadium on Friday, Nov. 25, 2016.

The Territorial Cup is one of the longest standing traditions in the state of Arizona, and this year’s match-up has more on the line than just a tin cup and bragging rights.

At 5-6, Arizona needs a win to reach bowl eligibility, while ASU has a chance to do something similar to what the Wildcats did to the Sun Devils in 2016.
